April - A busy month

April started with a much awaited trip to Chicago during Noelle's Spring Break.  Unfortunatly, there was way too much build up for me, so I was more than disappointed when the kids whined and threw tantrums the entire time.  We ended up cutting the trip short.  The first picture below pretty much sums it up.  However, there were a few highlights for both kids, namely sitting in a real, live, full size John Deere tractor, watching the aquatic show at the Shedd Aquarium, and visiting the American Girl Doll store.







Brian and I enjoyed another trip in April-- the 2012 Boston Marathon!!!  Brian qualified last May, so he's really been  looking forward to this and was hoping to do run under 3 hours, which would have been her personal best.  Unfortunately, it was an unseasonable 86 degrees that day, so by mile 5, he was hoping just to finish.  But I was able to meet up with some dear friends, and we had a great time.
